I am an artist. I also teach art classes with my school district and private painting classes. I have purchased supplies other places and have spent a lot more. I now only shop Dick Blick. The quality of the paints and brushes that I use are second to none. The prices are the best. I always try to buy extra of everything so that I don't ever have to buy from anywhere else. The art studio that I teach at for our school district has just started using Dick Blick and is already talking about ordering everything from them for the next year. It is a fantastic company.

If you haven't used disposible palettes, give these a try. Oil paint does not bleed through. As an additional advantage for a disposible palette, you can fold them over when finished and save them for color matching in the future for other paintings in a set or possible prints.

Our oil painting classes use these palettes for beginner- and intermediate-level painters to mix colors. The disposable sheets are convenient. Since the class is indoors, they don't use the pad as a palette (they use individual sheets), so there aren't issues with the way these pads are made (one edge glued).

Prices, promotions, and availability may vary by store, catalog, and online.
